The “Low Fuel” indicator light comes on in your car. It’s time to fill up. You pull into the closest gas station and fill ‘er up. You shudder at the final price -- it’s never been that high before. You begin to wonder if you should have just bought a Prius even though you hate how they look. You drive a block away and spot a gas station that’s 15 cents cheaper per gallon. You want to scream, but you know it’s not socially acceptable to do so. Okay maybe that’s just me wanting to scream, but it pains everyone at least a little. According to GasBuddy.com, fuel prices can vary by as much as 20 percent within a few blocks, so it can be very worthwhile to do a little comparison shopping before filling up your car.

With consumers starting to look at fuel-efficient vehicles, TrueCar.com has compiled a list of most fuel-efficient hybrids and non-hybrids, taking into account average combined EPA MPG, fuel prices, driving 15,000 miles annually. The ranking is then derived using overall cost of fuel annually. The list only looked at 2011 model vehicles that have a four-person seating capacity or higher and did not include pure electric vehicles because there is no cost associated with filling up a tank.
